Sub-500 ps 64 b ALUs in 0.18 μm SOI/bulk CMOS: Design & scaling trends

Abstract: The requirements of high-throughput Internet servers necessitate the use of multiple ALUs in high-performance 64b execution cores. Consequently, each ALU demands a compact, energy-efficient 64b adder core with single-cycle latency. The resultant critical path, which is a balanced mix of interconnect, diffusion and gate loads, forms a representative test bed for evaluating competing circuit techniques and process technologies (bulk CMOS/SOI). This paper presents: (i)the design of an energy-efficient 64b ALU in … Show more

“…High‐speed parallel‐prefix adders are critical building blocks in microprocessors, signal processing applications, and a variety of embedded systems . New techniques for improved speed*power efficiency as well as standby power reduction are of interest due to constraints in battery operated systems and when multiple adders may be operated in parallel.…”

“…Increased understanding of how SOI devices behave, and possible solutions to their quirks has lead to a wider acceptance of SOI in the VLSI community. Recently, SOI has been used in a number of high-end microprocessor designs, e.g., IBM Power PC [11], [12], HP-PA 8700 [13], and others [14], [15], as well as other high-performance logic circuits [16]- [18]. The manufacturing process of SOI is very similar to that of bulk CMOS.…”
